but the frequency of that data is not fixed, so sometimes it may have 4 lines, or 6 lines or whatever in that file. However, the last line will always have empty space/line below it.

What's a good criterion for identifying those lines?

Code:
grep xxxx file

pass your output result to sed

Code:
sed 's/^ *//'

cat file | grep xxx | awk -F"*" '{ print $2 }'

Useless Use of Cat! Useless Use of Grep | Awk!

Code:
awk -F "*" '/xxx/ { print $2 }' file

I don't think that does what was requested, though. I'm not sure, however; it would still help to get a sample of the expected output.
