Of course, the reason why Tian Jiyu made such a decision is, to a certain extent, because:

Duan Lingtian was his hope for getting the middle-grade elixir ‘Da Luo Dan’, and he didn’t want to disturb Duan Lingtian because of this matter.

Otherwise, even if he didn't think Duan Lingtian was related to the deaths of Zhou Fei and Zhou Tong, he would still check on Duan Lingtian.

Duan Lingtian didn't know that he had passed by the Jiuyou County Sheriff's 'investigation' into the deaths of Zhou Fei and Zhou Tong.

Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

Because in his opinion, even if the county governor's office went to investigate him, nothing would be found.

The Yin Jiao Army of Blood Nether City was almost wiped out by Zhou Tong. Now the only people who can confirm his ‘real details’ are Liu Fenggu, the Lord of Blood Nether City, Hong Lao, the leader of the Golden Snake Guard, and Qin Yu.

He believed that the three of them would not betray him.

Moreover, even if the three of them betrayed him, they could not produce conclusive 'evidence' to prove that he was capable of killing Zhou Tong.

To take a step back and say:

Even if Tian Jiyu, the governor of Jiuyou County, could confirm that he was the one who killed Zhou Tong, at least until the end of the sixteen-county martial arts competition held in the Prince of Qin's Mansion, Tian Jiyu would never be able to embarrass him.

As for whether Tian Jiyu still has the ability to embarrass him after the sixteen-county martial arts competition is over, it is another matter.

…

In the opposite direction from Jiuyou County to Xueyou City, about a hundred thousand miles away, there is a nearly vast and boundless mountain range.

Standing in the sky above this mountain range, looking left and right, all you can see are majestic mountains.

"If City Master Liu hadn't told me the specific location of the 'Fairy Fire'... Even if I knew that the 'Fairy Fire' was here, with my current consciousness, it would have taken decades or hundreds of years to find it.

It’s also difficult to find the location of the fairy fire here.”
