why not using a regex?

   var word = Regex.Match(input, ".* ([^ ]*) [^ ]*").Groups[1];

Just for fun:

string input = "Village Siaban  WDT no.39 91308 Semporna Sabah";
input.Split(' ').Reverse().Take(2).Last();

Step 1: You can Split the String using space delimeter to get all words from String.
Step 2: You can use the WordsLength-2 to get the 2'nd word from Last.

Try This:

string input = "Village Siaban  WDT no.39 91308 Semporna Sabah";

var words = input.Split(' ');
var reqWord = "";
if(words.Length > 1)
   reqWord = words[words.Length-2];
