When seventeen-year-old Renmei sets out to become her village’s healer, she dreams only of using her modest magic to mend wounds and save lives. But her destiny shifts the night she finds a wounded dragon dying in the forest. The dragon, known as The Custodian of Cobalt Flames, now reduced to a whisper of spirit; he finds refuge inside Renmei's body to survive. What begins as a haunting turns into an uneasy coexistence: He cannot fully manifest without her, and Renmei cannot remove him without losing the immense magic now flowing through her veins. His presence strengthens her mana core, filling her with power she never imagined—but every spell she casts feels tinged with a heat not entirely her own. Before she can understand what’s happened, the skies darken with the arrival of the dragon’s elder brother—The Dignified Eternal Guardian and Unyielding Sentinel of the Cyan Inferno. In human form, he is as commanding as he is disdainful. He sees Renmei as a reckless mortal who tampered with powers beyond her station, yet he cannot harm her without endangering his beloved brother. Bound by duty and love for his younger brother, he insists that Renmei accompany him across kingdoms to the Ancient Ancestral Pyre, a sacred mountain where souls of the dragons of the east may be reborn. Thus begins an uneasy pilgrimage between mortal and dragonkind. But the closer they draw to the Pyre, the more unstable their bond becomes. The cobalt flame within her grows hungrier, whispering in her dreams, reshaping her magic—and perhaps her humanity.

Liam Osbert is an ordinary young man in an extraordinary world — a realm ruled by martial sects, immortal cultivators, and gods who walk among the clouds. Yet Liam has no lofty dreams of power, no burning ambition to ascend the heavens. All he wants is peace, comfort, and a quiet life free of trouble. Unfortunately, fate—and troublesome people—have other plans. Armed with a mysterious status panel that grants him limitless comprehension points, Liam can instantly master any skill or technique he wishes. But rather than flaunt his power, he chooses to keep a low profile, pretending to be just another average disciple. He joins the Floating Cloud Sect, climbing its deadly mountain with ease, and begins his so-called “peaceful” life of cultivation. Peace, however, proves elusive. Liam constantly finds himself dragged into chaos he never asked for. Whether it’s ambushes from jealous disciples, impossible chores, or misunderstandings that spiral out of control, trouble seems to chase him no matter how far he runs. Caught between comedy and conflict, Liam must navigate sect politics, absurd tests, and unwanted attention — all while pretending to be mediocre and secretly wielding perfection. But as whispers spread of a disciple whose sword moves are “too perfect,” and mysterious figures begin taking an interest in him, Liam starts to realize something unsettling: even the most peaceful life can’t stay hidden beneath the clouds forever. A lighthearted adventure filled with dry humor, mistaken identities, and reluctant genius — Floating Beyond the Clouds follows one man’s attempt to survive a cultivation world the only way he knows how: by being quietly overpowered and utterly done with everyone’s nonsense.

But they were wrong. Behind that quiet smile is a man with unimaginable power… the wealthy young master of the prominent Morgan family. Grant was never the leech they thought he was.

Your reputation… “I begin, and he finally pulls away from me. “It would be just fine. “He cuts me off, and I gulp. “Are you ashamed of me? “He suddenly questions, and my eyes widen. “Of course not!
