The Senior Sister Next Door Is Reloading Again

[First draft of synopsis, 2026.2.4]

Chen Mi transmigrates into a doomed supporting female character in a cultivation novel.

She opens her eyes to a living hell. After failing to frame the heroine, she's trapped in a monster's lair and about to be reduced to bones.

Chen Mi: Oh, come on!

A golden finger drops into her lap: she can reload and rewind.

Chen Mi is delighted. She's got this!

After three hundred reloads, the monster is the one reduced to bones!

Time to grind!

Her pills keep blowing up the furnace? Reload thirty times!

Her sword intent keeps getting stuck? Reload five hundred times!

Her opportunity in the secret realm trial gets stolen? Then she'll reload a thousand times and grind for a perfect clear!

She grinds until one sword splits the heavens, and a thousand currents turn into auspicious clouds. Soon, there's only one voice left in the world: Senior Sister is mighty!

Huo Gui is a once-in-a-century prodigy at Qingyang Sect. But one day, after climbing in and out of a freezing pool three hundred times, he begins to experience a strange loop.

He reaches for a roast spirit rabbit thirty times but still can't get it into his mouth, until he's dizzy with rage.

He comprehends a sword intent five hundred times, only to start all over just as he begins to grasp it.

He's trapped in a secret realm a thousand times, and every time, just as he's about to clear it, he's sent back to the entrance.

Huo Gui is losing it. When will Senior Sister start caring whether he lives or dies?

Then he watches helplessly as Chen Mi falls off a cliff to save him, reloading more than ten times. Huo Gui's heart can't take it anymore. Before she can reload, he grabs her wrist and corners her beneath a peach tree. "Even if the sky falls today, Senior Sister has to hear me out!"

[Huo Gui loves Chen Mi! No matter how many times time restarts, he will never forget how he feels!]

[Mini-scene]

Beneath the Sword-Wiping Terrace, the river of stars hangs upside down, and lights shimmer as far as the eye can see. Huo Gui's palm is damp with sweat as he clutches a sword spirit he has spent years nurturing. "Senior Sister, I..."

[System notification: Host's sword intent is incomplete. Reloading automatically.]

Chen Mi vanishes. Huo Gui returns to where he started, and the sword spirit clatters to the ground.

Outside the alchemy room, the fire blazes and the air shimmers with heat. Huo Gui's ears are tinged pink as he carefully offers her a jade box filled with spirit plants. "My feelings..."

[System notification: Host failed at alchemy. Reloading automatically.]

Chen Mi vanishes. Huo Gui ends up at the foot of the mountain, and the jade box nearly slips from his hand.

Huo Gui can't take it anymore. Dark circles under his eyes, he says, "Senior Sister, do you know? I've practiced saying 'I love you' more than two thousand times!" But he still hasn't managed to say it.

Chen Mi: Ah, well, now I know.

[The grinding Senior Sister who reloads while AFK x The genius Junior Brother driven mad by the time loop]

Chen Mi tries to run dozens of times, but Huo Gui keeps dragging her back to bed. "Senior Sister, this is when you can reload a few more times."
