Yes, that was my initial assumption as well, but my friend (not the kind one who enlightened me, but the miserable one who gives me this information) said that the context of the conversations going around was something like, “Who would turn down a guaranteed future god as a disciple?” or something along those lines. That’s why it doesn’t make much sense, since several questions arise: “If a god, or even just an Immortal Emperor, protects the MC, who would dare threaten him?”, "If you’re looking to strengthen your clan/sect or raise a disciple, why would you refuse someone who is guaranteed to become a god in record time?", "If what Sovereign and the other gods ‘liked’ TW and what they want most is another god to strengthen humanity, why would they deny all support to the best possible candidate?"
I think the answer to that is in the game already is it not? If you ask Yue Yan about guaranteed adoption/protection from the clan, she/he says that while protecting you and watching over you is something that they could maybe manage, adopting you into their clan would definitely mean war as Tang Wei has so many powerful enemies including Immortal Emperor's and/or some Gods.
Even if the Wu Heir is guaranteed to become a God in record time, I think the question is it worth it for them in the short-run at least.
Considering that the Wu Heir can get randomly slimed out even with the Yue Clan's protection/adoption, is causing a war on a Celestial scale worth it for someone that you don't even know for certain will become a beneficial ally/God in the end?
If the MC is 100 virtuous/honorable then yeah maybe it is, but a demonic/dishonorable or even neutral MC? Who knows? They sure don't.
Besides, if what was stated is true - that Gods are more or less equal to one another, it's not like making the Wu Heir a God in 3 or so million years is an auto-win for them in the end. An advantage to be sure - but not so overwhelming as to wage war on a massive scale for millions of years, especially considering that they are a 'morally good' faction.
