Warpriest only needs weapon focus to be able to use his sacred weapon bonus, doesn't even need to be their deities favoured weapon. As long as you have weapon focus in both QS and bite you are good to go.
As an example, if you have weapon focus in bite, longsword and kukri, you can dual wield the blades and attack with your bite and all 3 would use your sacred weapon damage.

Actually, you deal sacred weapon damage with the your deity's favored weapon and whatever you have weapon focus in. In the Tengu Warpriest of Aspu example, you gain the sacred weapon damage with your bite, quarterstaff, and whatever you take weapon focus in. I'd recommend taking the claws alternate racial trait and choosing them.

They also get Sacred Weapon damage to their Deities' favored weapon, regardless of whether they Weapon Focus for it, or not.
Yes, it's written "in addition to the favored weapon of his deity, the warpriest can designate a weapon as a sacred weapon by selecting that weapon with the Weapon Focus feat"

I'm not entirely sure if the Green Faith qualifies as a deity (or a collective of deities?) or if they can have warpriests, but apparently they do have published domains.

Faiths of Balance was published in 2011(?), AP #75 (listed as source on Archives) was published in 2013 and apparently includes a study of the Green Faith by SKR - it could be that when Faiths of balance was published it was correct in that the Green Faith had no domains, but was subsequently overruled by later material. It wouldn't be the first time.
I can't really check since I don't have a copy of AP #75 handy, but maybe someone else could do the honors?

I would highly recomend the Claw + Bite Absu worshiping Tengu Warpriest. They trade Swordtrained out for a pair of Claw natural attacks that you select weapon focus for, making them Sacred Weapons along with your Bite. All 3 Natural attacks will start at 1d6+str and scale damage-wise as you level. Feral combat training allows you to use Unarmed Attack feats with Natural Weapons so you can pick up fun stuff like the Panther Style Chain etc.
I like to call mine an Angry Bird.

You could also take weapon focus in Tiger Fork and Chakram and take Martial Versatility and be able to have any light blade, heavy blade, throwing, spear, polearm or monk weapon, but he'd need to be human for that.

Well, or Half-Orc, Half-Elf, or Scion of Humanity Aasimar.

No I have read the AP 75 (wrath of the righteous) and there's nothing but fluff and the summoning variant (in a sidebar and this is for druid if i'm not mistaken), nothing about Domains or Favored weapons.
This is not entirely accurate. I borrowed a friend's copy of #75 and skimmed the article quickly, here's what I found:
...The Green Faith is true neutral overall, though individual members may have any alignment that includes a neutral element (chaotic neutral, lawful neutral, neutral evil, or neutral good). Its core is the druidic belief in protecting nature and understanding the cycles of seasons, elements, and mortality. Its favored weapons are those used by druids. Its holy symbols are mistletoe, holly, or a green face made out of leaves. Though there are no clerics of the Green Faith, druids who choose a domain instead of an animal companion may select the Air, Animal, Earth, Fire, Plant, Water, or Weather domain(...)
While it doesn't explicitly state that it's an option, I think there's enough material there for a GM to allow Green Faith Inquisitors or Warpriests if that's what someone wants to play. I'd probably make the character choose one of the ten druid weapons rather than getting proficiency with all of them, though.

I'd say the text "Though there are no clerics of the Green Faith," prohibits Warpriests as well as they are a hybrid class based on cleric.
A cleric or inquisitor of the Green Faith would obviously be dedicated to one of the gods whose followers participate in the organization. It's unknown whether the dieties themselves even acknowledge it's existence, or merely tolerate it for the purpose of pursuing common goals. So the Green Faith may be entirely a mortal gathering.
